What is Herb, the vegetarian dragon about?

Herb is a dragon with an unusual appetite: while the other dragons of Nogard feast on knights and princesses, he prefers tending his vegetable garden and eating leek and potato soup. When the castle’s knights capture him, Herb’s fellow dragons offer to help only if he agrees to eat meat. Can Herb remain true to himself and show everyone that dragons and people might live peacefully together? A funny, lively tale about individuality, acceptance and finding your own way.
